Right gang, I know I've started a few threads down memory lane but here's another.


What was your first contact with the law that resulted in your collar being felt?


P.s We want the truth DM, and you Hona, *Bob* and we'll save the best till last eh Louisa.


Daizee we've all been on Bromley highstreet at chucking out time at some point in our lives so you can stay mute on this one. Thanks.

norn irons favourite past-time, rioting. i got picked out from a crowd photo like many others, unlike some of the others although i was placed at the scene, there was no actual photo of me chucking anything, so it was words of advice to the parents and believe it or not it did the trick.

Wolfie why the assumption that ppl on here have done bad in the past (perhaps present and almost certainly the future, by your reckoning)? ;-)


I've nothing to come clean about on the subject of stepping onto the wrong side of the law but I can say I came rather close to a high security officer and her gun... I literally collided with her after the doors I was stuck between ejected me rather aggressively and she was on the other side... *ah the memories!*

Police used to regularly come and "move us on" from "the dips" and/or Point Hill on Blackeath, whci in the very early 90s were the places that lots of teens used to go and enjoy those teenage tipples mentioned in the other thread.


Remember one very drunk, and very stupid lad headbutting a copper, and so we all had to run run run, which can be difficult when not used to being very drunk!

Whilst living in Exeter in the 90s I was woken up at 3am by police doing a raid on my flight, looking for someone with my name. Much "discussion" took place and when I showed my (Irish - lucky me) passport they were even more pleased. It was only when they saw the DoB they realised they had the wrong person. A few more clarifications later and their manner changed from cocky and aggresive to pissed-off and aggressive. I wasn't impressed

I once managed to get picked up for being drunk and disorderly, indecent exposure, possession of an illegal substance and making an illegal campfire all in one go.


But they were only Park?s Board Police and they let us go when we said sorry and promised not to do it again.

    • Thanks for that - none  of mine  have been Mordena - whilst vulnerable cat, think I will just take my chances… Will be having flu though - certainly not by choice - much prefer not to but in vulnerable group.. Avoided them until last year…. Luck of drawer if you are as sick as fog  or just sore arm … assume - god knows - that flu jab is same throughout country.       
    • Wow, that is what it costs for one prisoner. So they get full board and lodging, 24 hour  monitoring  in over populated prison, we are led to believe, minimum exercise, assume a tv in each cell provided - in USA it is together with wash hand basin and c toilet - some have showers as well.   Clearly this amount of money takes  into account overstretched and overworked prison officers, protection for them, counselling which is, in my opinion a bare minimum dealing with prisoners in all settings. Do if Sweden can look outside the box, why can’t we? Or are we just not bothered at all / read statistics some where that reoffending is normal and to be frank, with economy as it is at the moment re employment, cost of living and homelessness..not surprised they reoffend to get back inside - food provided, roof over your head - much better than street living, mixing with wrong crowd, trying to get roof over your head, find a job where 90 % won’t employ you as been inside..
    • @beansprout The Swedes seem to have a useful strategy with regard to offenders  which has reduced repeat offending.  I agree that prison time for minor offences is a complete waste of time. Even worse is that prisons are "colleges of crime" where inmates learn about how to be do crimes and worst of all, become exposed to drug taking. I wouldn't advocate having chain gangs as in the USA but some strategy for getting them into say manual work under supervision might be useful - especially if it came with a modest wag. This would be significantly cheaper than the £51,100 it costs per year for  keeping one in jail.
